Step 3: Confirm and Upgrade the firmware via the USB port
Use the CC-USB Type-A to Mini-B 5-wire programming cable to provide communication between the
mini-USB Program port on the touch panel and the PC. This method of communication is used to
transfer firmware Kit files and TPD4 touch panel files.
1. Verify that the direct USB connection (Type-A on the panel to mini-USB on the panel) is configured
properly, using the steps outlined in the previous two sections.
2. With the panel already configured for USB communication and the Virtual Master setup within
NetLinx Studio, verify that the panel is ready to receive files.

The panel will not appear as a device below the virtual system number (in the Online
Tree tab) until both the system number used in step 7 for the VNM is entered into the
Master Connection section of the System Settings page and the panel is restarted.
A mini-USB connection is only detected after it is installed onto an active panel.
Connection to a previously powered panel causes the panel to reboot, allows the PC
to detect the panel, and assigns an appropriate USB driver.
